Abstract

Adolescence is a stage in life in which many students undergo social, emotional, academic, and moral changes. Psychiatric problems and markers of mental disorders are highly prevalent among students, ranging from distress and anxiety to depression and sleep disorders. Continuation of minor symptoms during adolescence can possibly lead to major depression, insomnia, and panic disorder in adulthood. The state of mental wellness is not examined as often as physical health even though mental health is volatile and is one of the most delicate parts of human health. In the present-day, mental illnesses are still highly stigmatized at the interpersonal level and the frequency of utilizing mental health care is significantly low compared to its increased accessibility. The purpose of the paper is to introduce a theoretical framework that reveals the importance of managing mental health from adolescence and how increased mental health care in educational institutions can provide students with a positive transition into adulthood.
